    Site Recommendation
    Pushin Daisies - is a mortuary gift shop site, and where yours truly got coffin boxes for the Gackt Doll.

    They have plenty of intersting novelty items for Goth lovers, particularly a black leather coffin backpack.

    Just in time for Halloween!

    Oldies but Goodies -- Past Recommendations (Remus/Draco)
    I often end up discussing the Slytherin/Gryffindor dynamic in terms of pairings with friends. Different priorities, different perspectives, etc. It's one of the reasons I find Harry/Draco, Snarry, Ron/Draco, and Hermione/Draco so appealing. The built-in conflict is too delicious to resist. House rivalries, assumptions about and genuine characteristics of house members make for exciting relationship building, and this is without taking into account specific canon events surrounding particular characters. In AU fics, I adore James/Draco fics, but I do like stories that stick to the canon timeline, and while I've by no means exhausted my fic reading of the above mentioned pairings, I sometimes like to find other pairs to read that feature this type of pairing. And so, Remus/Draco it is!

    Here are five Remus/Draco stories I've enjoyed. This pairing, especially in light of HBP, really lends itself to the hurt/comfort genre. Four of the five stories listed are hurt/comfort, and the characterizations, though varied from author to author, are plausible and fitting. None of these stories are new, but they might be new to you! If you'd like to give this dynamic pairing a try, here's a great start:

    Fannish week in recap
    I've got zero time and a headache, so this is going to be brief and a bit cranky.

    1) From the previews, it seems like movie 6 has officially given up any pretence of being based on the book. Ah well, it could still be an entertaining movie in its own right. Plus, I hear there's gonna be a lot of Draco, so there's that ;)

    2) Why all the fuss over the naked DanRad pics from the Equus previews? From what I've heard, the boy himself wanted full frontal posters back in 2007, so I doubt he'd mind.

    3) This is a fannish IJ and mostly free of politics, but I'd like to make one thing very clear: anyone who seriously squees over politicians who are openly anti-gay will please stay the fuck away from my slash.

    *off for more aspirin*

    We Shine Like Stars. (Fic, GW/LL, SS/HP, NC17 -- 1/7)
    Title: We Shine Like Stars
    Author: Cluegirl
    Type: Fiction, COMPLETED. I am posting it serially, for the sake of those who don't have time to read such a big chunk in one go.
    Length: Novella -- 33,000 words total. This part is 2,600 words
    Pairing: Ginny/Luna, with a side of Harry/Snape. Personally, I consider this story just as much a Snarry as it is G/L. Hopefully, you'll agree.
    Rating: NC17
    Canon compliancy: Shooting for Epilogue compliance. Yes, you did read that correctly, and I think I managed it as well, thanks!
    Disclaimer: All HP characters are the sole intellectual property of JKRowling, whom I am not. Therefore, I make no profit from this use.
    Warnings: Graphic descriptions of childbirth, and some ritual sex magic, but aside from that, it's pretty vanilla.
    Summary: Harry is not the only one who must struggle for a sense of self against the expectations of others; Ginny's dreams are heavily mortgaged too. It takes a brush with tragedy to alert her to the very real possibility of losing all, if she does not take matters into her own hands.
    Cards Drawn: The Empress, the Ace of Swords reversed, and Strength.
    Card Interpretation: The Empress -- satisfaction, a competent woman spinning the future from the present.
    The Ace of Swords, reversed -- Words, or the threat of them, used to destroy. A silence that is destructive. A refusal, or inability to speak up when words are needed.
    Strength -- Power, energy, a calm and soothing conviction. Fearlessness.
    Author Notes: Thanks to the League of Extraordinary Betae: [info]jenna_thorn, [info]emessann, [info]amanuensis1, and [info]kaiz. And also, my plot doctor, the ever-patient [info]aquila_dominus. I have decided that posting this story one section at a time will probably make it easier on my readers, but please be reassured, this is no WIP. The story is finished, and you'll see all of it, just at the rate of one section every couple of days. If you get impatient, and want to read the whole thing in one go, you can find it at [info]hp_tarot, or at my Skyehawke account. The title of the song, and the verses used at the chapter heads come from the song Bullet, by Covenant.

    [info]filkertom's musical reaction to watching Death Note is awesome. Check out the (spoilery) lyrics to "Who the F**k is Matt," a parody of Camper Van Beethoven's "Where the Hell is Bill," either at his lj or on the Death Note community. I love this man.

    I'm not often inspired to write for art that I see. Mostly I'm afraid I'll insult the artist, if my interpretation is not that same.

    But I saw this art this morning - and could not get this damn bunny out of my head.

    Its morning
    And I have some coffee called "Icing on the Cake" A warm buttery cup frosted with a touch of cinnamon. Hmm, tastes good.

    In honor of Genesis Rhapsodos I also have an apple danish.

    AND I've been getting lots of good comments on my Genesis/Sephiroth fic 'See You in September' - which may be due to pairing, my previous story pair was Angeal/Zack, (canonlove) but the comments may also be due to the fact that the fic has humor in it (those all ways seem to go over better in any fandom) and might be considered ... fluffy. (facepalm) ah well, at least I was able to get over my performance anxiety by just having fun with it. Lazard has just entered part two, and Zack will bounce in soon. And there is Angeal/Zack foreshadowing, SO THERE!

    I loves me some Angeal, yes I do. So buff and manly and motherly. Where do I get one?

    Made Gackt Dolls that look FABULOUS! Work on stand today.

    You guys have a wonderful Sunday, thinking of you.



    Love and Gackt.

    Fic: "Turning Point" (George/Angelina, NC17)
    Title: Turning Point
    Pairing: George/Angelina (past George/others; past Fred/Angelina)
    Rating: NC17
    Words: 3300
    Theme: Confession, though it turns out here that while the confession and the sex are concurrent and related, it's not really that the confessing is a kink.
    Warnings: This isn't cheerful fic; it takes place a few weeks after Fred's death.
    A/N: Canonically, Angelina goes to the Yule Ball with Fred; Jo's post-DH family tree has her marrying George. Here I am playing with the notion of, okay, so what if the Yule Ball was the beginning of a Fred/Angelina relationship that was casual and then eventually more serious, and with the issue of what, then, would happen between George and Angelina in the weeks following Fred's death. Thanks to [info]emiime for the read-through and for fixing my inexplicable incompetence with quotation marks.
